With new tax rules for residential rental properties and stricter regulations for the banks, the market is a different beast for property investors to deal with compared to what it was 6-12 months ago.
Here are my observations:
If you’d like to see examples of deals that active property investors are currently doing in this market, have a look at the Property Investment & Education Webinar I presented in November – it is free to watch.
And keep an eye on our Tax Changes webpage for updates on the new tax rules.
Wishing you a happy festive season and property investing success in 2022.
This letter is to express my appreciation for the assistance and encouragement of both Anthony Lipscombe and particularly John Heaslip over the last financial year. The period since activating my trading trust has been one of considerable stress, as well as personal development, as I embarked on this as a relative business neophyte with virtually no awareness of the contemporary requirements of running a business, particularly the financial records aspect. During much of this period I have therefore felt considerable out of my depth. However I have been lucky enough to have had the benefit of the advice and support of John Heaslip in rationalizing what was a fairly chaotic set of records of the first year property trading. I am able to say that John in particular, has been unstinting in his attention to my needs and has done so in a manner which has never alluded to my extremely rudimentary grasp of managing a business, or even of being unable to set out a spread sheet properly. The result of the above guidance is that now, although my trading trust would still not be able to operate without the advice of GRA, I do least feel a sense of satisfaction that I have got to my present point without major disaster and that my property trust does now have some kind of firmer basis for any future activities - Name withheld by request
